My Favorite Long Stories & Series

I love both long and short stories. But sometimes, I really want to read something lengthy and well-developed--really settle in with the characters. It's also a lot more risky, though, because I don't want to start some really long story and then halfway into it realize that I don't even like it that much. There's a lot of opportunity for one little thing to happen that will turn me away...and I'll have wasted all that time reading for nothing. My time is a precious commodity--which is why 30K is the threshold of what I consider to be a "long story." It is also why, in my opinion, recommendations for long stories are more important than any other kind of recs!

The Bright White Place dnivling@redshift.com The author doesn't provide a summary, so I'm going to have to come up with one...let's see - this is very disturbing, and very angsty. If you can't handle that, stay away from this fic. There are a lot of disturbing images, including rape. Story: Mulder has had his memory taken away, and wakes up believing that he works for CSM and the Syndicate. Scully believes he is dead. Neither can forget the other... It's MSR, but very, very dark. NC-17. 392K. November 1, 1999.

Cubed Louise Marin Scully does some body switching of her own--into an alternate universe. How will she get back...and does she really want to? For anyone who has ever wondered "what if?" I have, and this is the perfect answer. NC-17. 208K. Prior to July 8, 1999.
Damage Wrought By A Trip To Philadelphia J. Hallmark Mulder reacts to the events in Never Again. I really like this piece, despite the fact that I don't think Mulder would go quite as ballistic as this story portrays... NC-17. 153K. July 25, 1999.
